How to draw a much more dense grid or lattice?

My inquiries:




1) How to draw a much more dense grid in 2-dim?



2) How to draw a much more dense grid in 3-dim?




Let us say it is still 4 x 4 in 2d or 4 x 4 x 4 in 3D in size, but I want to have each side has 16 or 17 lattice point on unit 4 on the grid? (so 16 x 16 in 2D or 16 x 16 x 16 in 3D.)



Here is what I have:



begin{figure}[h!]
centering
begin{tikzpicture}
draw [very thin, lightgray] (0,0) grid (4,4);
end{tikzpicture}
label{fig:lattice}
caption{}
end{figure}

Here is a 3D grid.



documentclass[tikz,border=3.14mm]{standalone}
usepackage{tikz-3dplot}
tdplotsetmaincoords{70}{110}
begin{document}
begin{tikzpicture}[tdplot_main_coords]
foreach X in {0,1,...,16}
{foreach Y in {0,1,...,16}
{draw (X/4,Y/4,0) -- (X/4,Y/4,16/4);
draw (X/4,0,Y/4) -- (X/4,16/4,Y/4);
draw (0,X/4,Y/4) -- (16/4,X/4,Y/4);}}
end{tikzpicture}
end{document}


enter image description here



And here is an illustration that shows what the view does.



documentclass[tikz,border=3.14mm]{standalone}
usepackage{tikz-3dplot}
begin{document}
foreach Rot in {0,10,...,360}
{tdplotsetmaincoords{70+15*sin(Rot)}{Rot}
begin{tikzpicture}[tdplot_main_coords]
path[use as bounding box,tdplot_screen_coords] (-6,-2) rectangle (6,7);
foreach X in {0,1,...,16}
{foreach Y in {0,1,...,16}
{draw (X/4,Y/4,0) -- (X/4,Y/4,16/4);
draw (X/4,0,Y/4) -- (X/4,16/4,Y/4);
draw (0,X/4,Y/4) -- (16/4,X/4,Y/4);}}
end{tikzpicture} }
end{document}


enter image description here



You can, of course, use very thin gray lines. And yes, you can scale the grid by saying scale=<factor>.



documentclass[tikz,border=3.14mm]{standalone}
usepackage{tikz-3dplot}
tdplotsetmaincoords{70}{110}
begin{document}
begin{tikzpicture}[tdplot_main_coords]
begin{scope}[ultra thin,lightgray]
foreach X in {0,1,...,16}
{foreach Y in {0,1,...,16}
{draw (X/4,Y/4,0) -- (X/4,Y/4,16/4);
draw (X/4,0,Y/4) -- (X/4,16/4,Y/4);
draw (0,X/4,Y/4) -- (16/4,X/4,Y/4);}}
end{scope}

begin{scope}[line width=0.01pt,lightgray,xshift=5cm,scale=0.4]
foreach X in {0,1,...,16}
{foreach Y in {0,1,...,16}
{draw (X/4,Y/4,0) -- (X/4,Y/4,16/4);
draw (X/4,0,Y/4) -- (X/4,16/4,Y/4);
draw (0,X/4,Y/4) -- (16/4,X/4,Y/4);}}
end{scope}

  • @wonderich I think so, yes. Do you want to fade the distance lines away? Or just make all lines transparent, regardless of the distance to the front? Here is a proposal for the first option.

  • I dont need faded away -- this is too advanced for me. Just as transparent, for example, as the original my post OP or other posts! (The lines can be tuned to that gray scale). Thank you!

    • @wonderich I think so, yes. Do you want to fade the distance lines away? Or just make all lines transparent, regardless of the distance to the front? Here is a proposal for the first option.

    • I dont need faded away -- this is too advanced for me. Just as transparent, for example, as the original my post OP or other posts! (The lines can be tuned to that gray scale). Thank you!

    • I also how can I make the whole figure size tunable? [scale=...]?
